How to Join 4-H in Box Elder County
1. BRING TOGETHER a group of young people with similar interests and an adult leader to guide the club. Teens are encouraged to become youth leaders. No previous experience is necessary, just the desire to have fun and learn together as a club.
2. CHOOSE A PROJECT of interest to your group. There are over 100 projects to choose from, or create your own. Contact the 4-H office if you need project ideas. Decide on a name for your club. Choose a day and time to meet that fits the needs of the group.
3. ENROLL A GROUP at your USU County Extension Office by competing an enrollment form, paying dues, and picking up club project materials.
4. MEET & LEARN together to complete selected projects. Enter members' finished projects in the County Fair. Learning will be enhanced by including community service projects. Explore other
4-H events, activities and trips.
